Intelligent Mobile Projects with TensorFlow

Overview of this book

As a developer, you always need to keep an eye out and be ready for what will be trending soon, while also focusing on what's trending currently. So, what's better than learning about the integration of the best of both worlds, the present and the future? Artificial Intelligence (AI) is widely regarded as the next big thing after mobile, and Google's TensorFlow is the leading open source machine learning framework, the hottest branch of AI. This book covers more than 10 complete iOS, Android, and Raspberry Pi apps powered by TensorFlow and built from scratch, running all kinds of cool TensorFlow models offline on-device: from computer vision, speech and language processing to generative adversarial networks and AlphaZero-like deep reinforcement learning. You’ll learn how to use or retrain existing TensorFlow models, build your own models, and develop intelligent mobile apps running those TensorFlow models. You'll learn how to quickly build such apps with step-by-step tutorials and how to avoid many pitfalls in the process with lots of hard-earned troubleshooting tips.
Table of Contents (14 chapters)

Training and freezing an image captioning model

In this section, we'll first summarize the process of training the Show and Tell model called im2txt, documented at https://github.com/tensorflow/models/tree/master/research/im2txt, with some tips to help you better understand the process. Then we'll show some key changes to the Python code that comes with the im2txt model project, in order to freeze the model to be ready for use on mobile devices.

Training and testing caption generation

If you have followed the Setting up the TensorFlow Object Detection API section in Chapter 3, Detecting Objects and Their Locations, then you already have the im2txt folder installed; otherwise simply cd to your TensorFlow source root...
